The town is located in the south of the locality.[6]

The New England Highway enters the locality from the north (The Glen) and exits to the south (Cottonvale); it bypasses the town just to the west.[6]

The Southern railway line enters the locality from the north-east (Silverwood) and passes through the town (being served by the Dalveen railway station 28°29′18″S 151°58′18″E / 28.4882°S 151.9718°E / -28.4882; 151.9718 (Dalveen railway station)) and then exits to the south (Cottonvale).[6][7]

History

[edit]

The name Dalveen derives from locality name given by settler John Flint, who named it after Dalveen Pass in Lanark, Scotland.[4]

Stanthorpe Road Provisional School opened on 12 August 1878. In 1879 it was renamed North Maryland Provisional School. In 1892 it was renamed Dalveen State School on 18 January 1892.[8][9]

The section of the Southern railway line from Cherry Gully via Dalveen to Stanthorpe opened on 3 May 1881.[10][7] The town's first post office was based at the Dalveen railway station and opened on 16 May 1881, replacing the post office at Cherry Gully operated from 1 January 1880 to 16 May 1881.[11][12][13]

Cherry Gully Provisional School opened in 1900. On 1 January 1909, it became Cherry Gully State School. It closed circa 1916.[14] It was on Old Stanthorpe Road (28°26′03″S 152°01′59″E / 28.43417°S 152.03293°E / -28.43417; 152.03293 (Cherry Gully State School (former))), now within the locality of Dalveen.[15]

Saint Barnabas Anglican Church, 2015

St Barnabas' Anglican Church was built in 1903.[16][11][17]

The first Dalveen Hall was completed in September 1913 by contractor J. Lang, junior.[18] The official opening was cancelled due to the death of respected pioneer David Butler.[19] The second Dalveen Hall officially opened on 1 April 1939. The contractor was Jack Smith, and local sawmillers the Pidgeon Brothers supported the project with timber and use of their trucks.[11][20]

The Dalveen branch of the Queensland Country Women's Association was initiated by Mrs. Jean Coomber and opened in November 1924 as a sub-branch of the Condamine Valley branch. In November 1925, it decided to hold a Christmas Tree Party in December, which has become an annual event.[11][21][22]

The Dalveen Presbyterian Church was built in 1956 by volunteers using locally-milled timber.[11] Following the amalgamation of the Presbyterian Church and Methodist Church into the Uniting Church in Australia on 22 June 1977, it became Dalveen Uniting Church. The Methodist Church at The Summit also became a Uniting Church and services were alternated between these two churches. It held its last service on 23 June 2012 and was sold for use as a private residence.[11][23][24][25]
